Hello everyone and welcome once again on my blog...We are in February already...I think it is quite overwhelming how fast time runs forward...especially if you have deadlines...heeelp...Lol!Anyhow...this is today's project: it's a pretty simple card...

I have used Tim Holtz 'Umbrella Man' die (my preciousssss...ha ha ha...you have no idea for how long I have coveted this die...) to create a stencil, which I used with White Gesso to create a focal point image that could Resist to the colors I would have added later. After drying quite well I have built my background with Distress Oxides: Twisted Citron, Cracked Pistachio and Peacock Feathers, wiping away the colors from 'Resisting' image, then added D.O. Peacock Feathers with Tim Holtz Splash Stencil, dried and used the same stencil with a damp baby wipe to take off some background color. Spritzed and flicked some water, then used the die-cut Man as a mask and added few stamps here and there with Archival Black Ink. Flicked few drops of white ink, then distressed the borders with a scissor and with Distress Ink Black Soot. Glued to a piece of black cardstock, added some string and my sentiment, created with my Dymo and attached to a piece of recycled cardboard, previously painted with Lindy's Magicals Drop Dead Gorgeous Green and Tibetan Poppy Teal.

Presento questa card per le seguenti sfide.../ I submit this card to the following challenges:
